Leek Fritters for Thanksgiving

Vegetarian fritters have been made in Mediterranean countries for centuries. Made with simple ingredients such as leeks, breadcrumbs, eggs and parsley, these fritters will stand out when you serve them as a side for your Thanksgiving turkey!

The gourmet recipes of The Kitchen Buzzz are created by chef and museum educator Nancy DeLucia Real. The recipes are based on Nancy’s mastery in combining traditional and exotic foods with a history or “buzzz” of the moment. Nancy teaches art history and leads culinary workshops (hands-on) at the J. Paul Getty Museum and the Italian Cultural Institute of Los Angeles, among other venues. Nancy’s expertise is a reflection of her education and gastronomy training which took place in Italy. Nancy teaches adults and children in English, French, Italian and Spanish (in the kitchen and in museums). Contact us to plan a private class for your next event.
